| • Inadequate boiler water flow. Verify that pump is operating and that pump and piping are sized per Part VIII of this manual | ||
| b 26 | Boiler safety limit, or external limit wired across terminals 3&4. is open. | • See possible causes for ub18" |
| • Defective supply sensor. | ||
| b 30 | Temperature rise between supply and return is too high. | • Inadequate boiler water flow. Verify that pump is operating and that pump and piping are sized per Part VIII of this manual |
| b 61 | Pressure switch circuit closed with fan off | • Blockage in pressure switch hose |
| • Pressure switch wires shorted together | ||
| • Defective pressure switch | ||
| • Loose or miswired fan speed harness (if “b61" error code is observed while fan is running) | ||
| b 65 | Fan is not achieving set point speed | • Loose or incorrect fan speed control connection |
| • Defective fan | ||
| E 00 | A flame signal was present when there should be no flame. | • Defective gas valve - make sure inlet pressure is below maximum on rating plate before replacing valve. |
| E 02 | Flame failure after 5 tries to restart | • No gas pressure |
| • Gas pressure under minimum value shown on rating plate | ||
| • Gas line not completely purged of air | ||
| • Defective Electrode | ||
| • Loose burner ground connection | ||
| • Defective Ignition Cable | ||
| • Loose or defective gas valve harness | ||
| • Defective gas valve (check for 24 VDC at harness during trial for ignition before replacing valve) | ||

| • Blocked condensate trap (BWC 150 Only) | ||
| E 03 | Internal control failure | • Reset the control. If problem reoccurs, replace the MCBA. |
| E 04 | Power failure occurred after lockout | • Some other error on this list occurred and power to the boiler was then interrupted. Reset control and see if hard lockout reoccurs. |
| E 05, E 06, E 07, E 11 | Internal control failure | • Reset the control. If problem reoccurs, replace the MCBA. |
| E 12 | Low water cut-off circuit open | • If yellow light on LWCO is on, system is low on water |
| • If neither yellow nor green light is on, check LWCO harness and check for 24VAC across AT 140 transformer | ||
| E 13, E 14, E 15, E 16, E 17 | Internal control failure | • Reset the control. If problem reoccurs, replace the MCBA. |
| E 18 | MCBA supply sensor detected temperatures in excess of 200°F for an extended period of time | • See possible causes for “b18" error. Also, check safety limit for proper operation. |
| E 19 | MCBA return sensor detected temperatures in excess of 200°F for an extended period of time | • See possible causes for “b19" error. |
| E 28 | Blower is not running when it should or fan speed signal not being detected by MCBA | • Loose connection in 120 VAC fan wiring |
| • Loose or miswired fan speed harness | ||
| • Defective fan | ||
| E 29 | Blower fan speed has not returned to zero rpm | • Miswired fan speed harness |
| • Defective fan | ||
| E 31 | Shorted supply temperature sensor | • Shorted or miswired supply sensor wiring |
| • Defective supply sensor | ||
| E 32 | Shorted return temperature sensor | • Shorted or miswired return sensor wiring |
| • Defective return sensor | ||
| E 35 | Flue gas temperature sensor short circuit | • Shorted or miswired flue temp sensor wiring |
| • Defective flue temp sensor |
Crown Boiler PHNTM399 boiler error codes
| Indication | Condition | Possible Cause |
|---|---|---|
| Display Completely Dark | No 120Vac Power at Boiler | Check breaker and wiring between breaker panel and boiler. |
| Fan off, LWCO lights off, no green power light on Control | ||
| Display Completely Dark, Fan running | No 24Vac Power to Control | - Loose 120Vac connection wiring between boiler J-Box and transformer |
| - Loose 24 Vac connection wiring between transformer and Control. | ||
| Blinking Green power light on Control | Control Fault | - The green light is connected to internal power supply. The power supply is repeatedly starting and stopping (not normal) making the light flash. The microprocessors are not running. |
| - Try disconnecting all terminals except 24VAC to power the Control. The green light should be steady. If it is not, then the control is defective. If steady, start plugging in all the connectors while watching the green light. When faulty wiring reconnected, green light will begin to flash. | ||
| Display Completely Dark but Boiler fires | No 5 Vdc Power to Display | - Loose 5 Vdc connection wiring between display and Control |
| - Defective Display or Control. | ||
| **00FF or **ERFF | display lost communication with control | - Loose or defective display harness |
| - Defective Display | ||
| - Defective Control | ||
| ER0011 | Adjustment Mode Password Timeout | - The Control and Display are NOT defective. The password has timed out. Simply cycle power to the Display to restore operation. |
| ER0012 | Control Failed | - Defective Control. Replace Boiler Control. |
